There are quite a few people in New Jersey who sincerely believe that there’s not much required to create a will and protect their New Jersey estate for loved ones. It seems so simple to just write something down, get it signed, and have a notary public stamp it.
They just feel there’s no reason to have a lawyer involved. That is a bad mistake.
New Jersey does adhere to the Uniform Probate Code to make these little bit easier but the process of drawing up an effective will takes some understanding of the legal code in the Garden State. Moreover, circumstances change and a beneficiary may die before the principal passes away, created complications which the originator of the will may not have considered. The worst-case scenario is that a beneficiary dies, and then the principal of the estate passes away, and survivors have to prove that the original beneficiary is deceased. Such estate disasters are the finer points of probate that attorneys who are part of New Jersey based prepaid legal plans recognize immediately. They can advise a person quickly about what to do to prevent something like this happening, making certain that the last will and testament has a contingency to cover the death of the primary beneficiary.
Critics will complain about the cost of attorneys in New Jersey. These plans keep such costs manageable. The plans also provide a range of services for people who live in New Jersey. Wills and estates may require codicils and other changes that weren’t considered when the first draft was prepared. Prepaid legal plans can help a person walk through what might be a very confusing probate jungle, providing individuals with credentialed attorneys who understand probate law and have a better idea of what to do than a layperson. It’s always better in matters of estates to have somebody who is proficient in probate law. It means that a number of problems will not be experienced by loved ones as they go about fulfilling the last wishes
